In this paper, we consider the inverse problem of the scattering of a plane acoustic wave by a multilayered scatterer; especially we study the properties of the corresponding far field operator. This problem models time-harmonic acoustic or electromagnetic scattering by a penetrable homogeneous medi

β¦ Synopsis
Communicated by G. C. Hsiao
The far-field operator for an exterior boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation maps the boundary data onto the far-field pattern of the solution. This paper computes the L2-adjoint of this operator for various choices of boundary conditions. In scattering theory the boundary data are given by the traces of plane waves. We characterize the closure of the span of the images of these plane waves under the far field operator.
Finally, the results are extended to more general topologies including Sobolev and Holder norms.

## Abstract In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the boundary perturbations of an object from farβfield electric or acoustic measurements. Assuming that the unknown scatterer boundary is a small perturbation of a circle, we develop a linearized relationship between the farβfield da
## Abstract We consider the inverse scattering problem of determining the shape of a perfect conductor __D__ from a knowledge of the scattered electromagnetic wave generated by a timeβharmonic plane wave incident upon __D__. By using polarization effects we establish the validity of the linear samp
## Communicated by G. F. Roach Time-harmonic electromagnetic waves are scattered by a homogeneous chiral obstacle. The reciprocity principle, the basic scattering theorem and an optical theorem are proved. These results are used to prove that if the chirality measure of the obstacle is real, then
